getting excited for the big event!

I'm excited at the way my spring 10-10-10 event for March 31st is shaping up, and I'm loving the focus on Designer Series Papers! I think I have finally gotten over my tendency to hoard them, and I can actually bring myself to cut into the sheets. Designer Series Papers help me break out of my color rut and try combos I never would have dreamed up on my own.

It also helps that I got the papers for the cards in this post for FREE! I love Sale A Bration! And the Everyday Enchantment papers are SOOOO gorgeous and so versatile. Plus, there's those yummy brads and organdy skinny ribbon to coordinate--be sure you take a look at pages 6-7 of the Sale A Bration rewards brochure before the big sale ends on the 31st!

We'll be making this simple, colorful card at the 10-10-10 event, and I'll bring the entire Fabulous Phrases set along so that you can choose words to form your own custom greeting. There's still time left to RSVP--email me and if I can make it happen I will squeeze you in!

Here's another card that uses the same papers and color schemes. This one was for Calendar Club this week. Between the 11 of us, we sure gave that Beautiful Wings embosslit a run for it's money!

The inside on this one is fun, too! There were different sayings people could use from the Flight of the Butterfly stamp set. I have a feeling that one may retire here in May, so make sure you take a gander at the set and the coordinating punch, as once it hits the retirement list, it will sell out pronto.

Stay tuned for more posts I have set up to share with you while I'm enjoying the gorgeous weather of our Spring Break with my family! I will have to post some pictures of my giant babies. You won't believe how they have shot up recently. I was surprised their swimsuits were still decent! We'll have to get them new ones before we head out on the Stampin' Up Disney World incentive trip in April. Whoo hoo!
